Trade Consulting & Classification

Take the guess work out of classification to make the import process go smoothly

Our extensive experience with the Bureau of Customs and Border Protection along with our deep knowledge of classifications and proper valuation provides exceptional value for our clients. 

It saves clients time and money to have our specialists determine the accurate value of goods as well as the proper Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) numbers.

When import products don’t fall within regular tariff classifications, it may be beneficial to secure a binding ruling from Customs to lock in a specific tariff classification and duty rate or resolve questions related to marking or valuation. Obtaining a ruling from CBP is a complex process that should be handled by experienced professionals like those at Blanco Customs Brokerage. We have secured several binding rulings from CBP on behalf of our clients. .

Examples of rulings we have secured for clients:

NY N061324
